Abstract :
Cloud Computing is the latest trend of today’s IT industries. It is the solution for the problem that occurs due to the resources availability and its utilization over the network. The popularity of cloud computing has increased due to its great policy of pay-as-you-use or resource-on-demand but still it lacks with certain issues of security, trust and efficiency when implemented or deployed on large enterprise such as in geological surveys, scientific applications, astrological applications, oceanography etc. There exist lots of solution in security issues and lots of research for its efficiency but none of them focus on the both issues together. In this paper we have proposed a model that will provide solution for both of these issues. The work mainly focus on the fast scheduling of events in cloud computing by using private key cryptosystem instead of public key cryptosystem and instead of using traditional IKE i.e. internet key exchange mechanism we used the concept of random key reusability which is an approach for providing authenticate and efficient key exchange as that of IKE. Also the various section are made for storing users data on basis of the confidentiality, authentication and integrity that will enhance the overall security of the data stored and retrieved in the cloud computing.

Key-Words / Index Term :
CLC, IKE, Certification Authority, Sensitivity Rating, Random Key Reusability
